4.03 Rotations

Interactive practice questions

What is the correct image after $M$M is rotated $180^\circ$180° clockwise about the origin?

On a Coordinate Plane, four identical triangles that share a common vertex at the origin $\left(0,0\right)$(0,0) are plotted. In every quadrant there is one triangle. They are arranged like a pinwheel where each subsequent triangle is a $90^\circ$90° rotation of the previous one. The triangle in the first quadrant is shaded green and is labeled as triangle $Q$Q. The triangle in the second quadrant is shaded blue and is labeled as triangle $P$P. The triangle in the third quadrant is shaded orange and is labeled as triangle $N$N. The triangle in the fourth quadrant is shaded purple and is labeled as triangle $M$M.
